[QUOTE="Rhun, post: 4064710, member: 29098"] [b]COMBAT - ROUND 1, complete[/b] The door swings open to reveal a dark room beyond. The light of your sunrod shines in, but before you have a chance to take in any of the chamber's details, and large humanoid suddenly steps into the doorway, the powerful form clad in plate armor and holding a massive greataxe in its gnarled fists. Stepping forward, the lumbering ogre bellows something in a language none of you understand, and slashes at Trevor. The axe tears into the man, cutting a deep swath across his chest. Passing his gut check, Trevor forces the ogre back just enough to slip to the ogre's right, and, drawing his sword as he does so, smites the ogre with his longsword. The ogre attempts to score a hit on Trevor as he moves, but strikes the wall above the soldier's head instead. Trevor's own strike sinks deep into the ogre's hip, opening a bloody wound. Kurt startles slightly at the sight of their opponent. But he quickly settles down to business. Sizing up the situation, and his position, Kurt slaps the dwarf on the shoulder. [COLOR=MediumTurquoise]"Go Ragnok with the strength of Heironeous to guide your blows!"[/COLOR] Moving quickly to get a better line on the target, Verdis darts to his right and forward then snaps off a shot with his crossbow over the heads of his companions. He glances over his shoulder at the hinges of the door at his back to see which way it opens. The crossbow bolt clinks off the ogre's armor and into the darkness beyond. [sblock=For Scotley] The door opens into the room. [/sblock] Coraine slashes at the ogre, calling on the might of Heironeus as he does so. Unfortunately, the paladin's axe deflect's off the foes armor. Dara takes a step back and tries to cast her newly learned spell at the ogre, but is hindered too much by her armor, and so the spell fizzles. Ragnok growls and rushes into melee, strengthened by Kurt's spell. The dwarf stumbles upon a loose skull as he moves forward, though, and his axe slams into the doorjamb, instead of its target.
